Over the last few years, Kevin Owens has found himself in major matches on the WWE roster. This would include battles over the WWE Universal Championship, and even two WrestleMania main event matches.
At WrestleMania 38, he faced Stone Cold Steve Austin in a No DQ match in Texas. The one year later, he teamed with Sami Zayn to face The Usos for the WWE Tag Team Championships. Fans have debated which match is better – but Owens knows which was his favourite.
Kevin Owens Puts WrestleMania 38 Just Above WrestleMania 39
During an interview with Spencer Love of Love Wrestling, Owens would be asked which WrestleMania main event he preferred. He’d have the following response.
“I hate doing this because it sounds like I’m trying to get out of easily, but there’s really no words to describe either experience. The best way I can describe it is Iook back on both of these nights, and I kind of can’t believe they happened, that I found myself in that situation, in that spot, getting to do that, and the circumstances on both years were just so incredible.
I guess if one takes the absolute cake and just edges out the other one by very little, I think it’s still more unbelievable to me that I wrestled Stone Cold Steve Austin 19 years after his last match in the main event of WrestleMania. That’s just kind of a ‘pinch yourself to make sure it’s real’ kind of moment, and I’ve done that a lot over the last year and a half or so since it happened. But both those moments, they’re things I’ll look back on when I’m done and think I was very, very lucky to get to experience those things.”
Both matches showed how much Owens is valued by WWE, allowing him to share the ring with one of their biggest legends, and giving him a crucial moment in The Bloodline storyline. Owens & Zayn are two of the most popular in WWE right now, and who could know what the future holds for them.
